S. Hiyamizu et al., EXTREMELY FLAT INTERFACES IN IN0.04GA0.96AS AL0.3GA0.7AS QUANTUM-WELLS GROWN ON (411)A IN0.04GA0.96AS SUBSTRATES BY MBE/, Superlattices and microstructures, 21(1), 1997, pp. 107-111
Pseudomorphic In0.04Ga0.96As/Al(0.3)G(0.7)As quantum wells (QWs) with
well widths of 1.2, 2.4, 3.6, 4.8, 7.2 and 12 nm have been grown on (4
11)A In0.04Ga0.96As ternary substrates by MBE at growth temperature of
T-s = 520 degrees C. The interface flatness of the QWs was characteri
zed by photoluminescence at 4.2 K. Extremely flat interfaces have been
realized in the QWs on the (411)A InGaAs substrates, which is better
or sometimes much better than In0.04Ga0.96As/Al0.3Ga0.7As QWs grown on
(100) In0.04Ga0.96As alloy substrates, (411)A and (100) GaAs substrat
es, indicating high application potential of (411)A InGaAs alloy subst
rates. (C) 1997 Academic Press Limited
